Using a MP3 player with PCM

[Timbo_Mint]

Hi

I've grown use to having my music on a memory stick but my Spyder only has an AUX socket.

Now I know I can get an mp3 player and plug the AUX to the Headphones socket but that does not give me any control over the track select (without steering off the road ).

With a bit of research I'm beginning to think I could achieve something using Blue Tooth but before I start spending money I like to know what can and can't be done.

Anyone been here/done that?

p.s. I don't own any Apple products and for pure bloody minded reasons I'm reluctant to start.

I have the iPod interface retrofitted to my PCM 2. I have to control the music through using the iPod itself, so I don't see any other MP3 player being any better.

So, you may as well set up a playlist and start it off before you leave.

Not very good, but that's the way of it.

do you have the usb extra.mine does and i just plug my mp3 in via the usb port and all comes up on the pcm,although the cable i use is a bit long

No USB connection

But you have given me the idea that perhaps they can be retro fitted. I've asked.
